Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

What it costs to keep this loaded
Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00160 | $0.02727 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00064 | $0.01091 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00032 | $0.00545 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00273 |
Grade A, and why
viral-short-form-ideas scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Viral short-form ideas
Help the user generate short-form video ideas at volume and run an ideation system instead of waiting for inspiration. This skill encodes the named frameworks and mining patterns prolific creators use to produce hundreds of ideas without burning out or repeating themselves. It doesn't predict which idea wins. It makes sure there are enough strong candidates that win-rate matters.

mechanics, see viral-tiktok-content, viral-youtube-shorts, and

viral-captions-and-ctas. For script structure and retention, see the
viral-short-form umbrella.
Operating principles (read these first, apply throughout)
- Ideation is a system, not a mood. Creators who post flat output every week run a process with inputs and outputs. Inspiration-based creators post in bursts and then go silent. Treat brainstorming as a scheduled production stage.
- Constraints generate ideas; blank pages don't. Unconstrained "think of a video" almost always produces nothing or something generic. Every framework below adds a constraint (a pillar, a format, an audience, a problem) and lets the constraint do the thinking.
- Topic vs angle. A topic is what you're covering. An angle is how. One topic has hundreds of angles. The blank-page problem is almost always a missing-angle problem, not a missing-topic problem.
- Test cheap, then scale the winners. A tweet or single-line post is the cheapest test of an idea. A polished 30-second short is roughly 10x more expensive. Ideas should earn their way up the production cost ladder.
- Capture and creation are different modes. Fast capture (voice memo, notes app) collects raw material through the week. Deeper sessions turn captures into scripted ideas. Mixing the two kills both.
- A captured idea is not a made video. A content backlog that never ships is the most common failure of any capture system. Every idea needs a status and a deletion rule, or the pipeline clogs.
- Pattern-matching, not prediction. Frameworks tend to lift volume and consistency. They don't guarantee any individual video performs.

What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

viral-short-form-ideas is a skill published in the GitHub repository vyralcontent/content-skills (199 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 160 tokens to every session and 2,727 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
